Costa Lago Torremolinos

We woke with hangovers again and decided to go to the smugglers bar for a full english fry up. We have not ate bacon for the whole time that we have been away and I have been dreaming about bacon buttys lol. It was a really nice breakfast and just the thing for a hang over. We then went for a walk down the famous strip of the Costa Del Sol. Its ok and really pretty the beach is lovely and there are lots of bars and even spanish ...

... was very tasty and I feel better that I can at least eat again without being so paranoid about where the food has been stored all day. We had met an english lady on the train that was so ill by the food in morroco that i felt really glad and relieved that we had come off so lucky.<br><br>Ian was feeling much better as well thankfully and we go on the bus to our final place the Costa Del Sol rodney! It was a ...

... for an affordable holiday. torremolinos tends to have more belgian, dutch and northern europeans.<br><br>terry and i travel well together, we usually don't go out to eat and prefer to shop for our own groceries, stay in and cook. we usually rent a time share or in this case an apartment/hotel which is like a time share only the kitchen does not have an oven, just a stove top. there is a hybrid microwave with convection oven that i am afraid of using after my toast ...

Today we had an excursion to the Caves of Nerja about an hour away on the bus. The little town on the water was cute and reminded me so much of Dubrovnik. We have free time to visit the little church and have an ice cream. Then we were off to the nearby caves which were fascinating but didn't learn much because the guide was doing double time with the tour speaking both French and English and he spoke mostly French even when he was speaking English it seemed.

We were so enjoying our time in Costa del Sol, nothing but beaches, pool time, and british families. Costa del Sol is pretty much the Florida of Europe, only the water´s not as warm. And the definition of a 4 star resort is a bit different in Spain than in the US... When we first arrived, they tried to put us in an apartment with 2 twin beds! Finally playing the ¨honeymoon¨ card played off, and we ended up with a spectacular room (see pics for the view). But after 4 days of lying ...

Sylvie repart pour la suisse... heureusement, je ne suis pas seule à l'auberge et passe une bonne soirée avec d'autres voyageurs!! On boit un peu, beaucoup, trop de sangria... et je décide à 6h du matin de repousser mon départ de Malage au lundi... j'ai trouvé un prof d'espagnol que je prendrais bien avec moi pour un petit bout de chemin ,-)<br>

Syvlette débarque à 8h30, je ne suis pas très fraîche après ma nuit dans l'aéroport, mais elle s'est levée à 4h du mat pour prendre l'avion alors on est un peu dans le même état!!! C'est un beau moment de retrouvailles, c'est bon qu'elle soit là, elle me fait du bien!! Nous rattrapons le temps perdu de ces 5 dernières semaines et on profite de tout se raconter en live!! Chouette ...

... for lunch is an area called Chininitos where there are lots of chairs and tables set outside for a great seafood. <br>Teatro Romano is another nice place to visit, heading up to the Mount Gilfrano from there allows to see the whole city underneath. Amazing view of the Torre where the bullfighting occurs. <br>Once seeing the precaussions was over at night, we head out to Cordoba for our last day of visit in the Southern Spain.

... cake bij het ontbijt was of het vlees bij het avondeten of de speculaas bij de koffie; echt alles wat ik/we hebben geproefd smaakte ons erg goed! Hierna begon het praat- en discussiefeest dat de hele week niet ophield. Het is slechts zelden dat ik twee zulke openhartige mensen tegenkom. Later die week hoor ik stemgeluiden op een vroeg uur uit de kapiteinshut komen. Een tekenende reactie volgde op mijn opmerking daarover. "Oh, dat is niets bijzonders hoor, dat gaat dag ...
